Those who could operate high-end nightclubs in the Free Federation were mostly forces controlled by financial groups, or even the groups themselves.

Although Manager Sun was just a small nightclub executive, he wasn't lacking in courage.

He knew that soone who could hang out with top-tier alphas like Ning Xi must have impressive background themselves.

But he wasn't afraid at all.

The entertainnt venue beneath his feet was backed by the Guo family!

One of the most powerful financial groups in the Fourth District.

Forget about Ning Xi, even if the Ning family's old patriarch ca today, he couldn't make much of a splash.

Thinking this way, when he saw the young woman walking towards him, Manager Sun directly chose to use force.

He pulled out a small electric baton from his side, thrusting the sparking tal tip towards the woman's shoulder.

Shen Han's movents were much faster than his.

She sidestepped the electric tip, seized his wrist, and disard him of the sparking weapon as if disarming a gun.

Their clash took only five or six seconds, though it seed longer in the telling.

Before the group of black-suited security guards could react, their manager was already howling.

Shen Han twisted Manager Sun's hand socket, wrenching his entire arm behind his back.

Then she pushed him, walking straight towards the private room's exit.

"Tell your staff not to block the way, otherwise I won't be responsible for any twisted muscles or bones."

Hearing the woman's voice from behind, Manager Sun awkwardly hunched his shoulders, inwardly cursing.

Indescribable pain spread from his wrist to his brain.

His face contorted, cold sweat covering his entire forehead.

A room full of security guards looked at each other.

Finally, they turned their gaze to Ning Xi, Ma Haoyu, and the uniford oga.

They figured their leader couldn't act rashly.

But if they could control the troublemaker's companions, wouldn't the problem be solved?

Both sides would have "hostages," and their side had more numbers.

Admittedly, the security guards' tactical thinking wasn't bad.

But they hadn't considered one question: Could they actually beat them?

For tonight's occasion, Ning Xi had specially worn hot pants with Martin boots, her long tanned legs round and straight, looking even hotter than the oga beauties on the first-floor dance floor.

However, when she started moving her legs to attack.

Those security guards who had designs on her belatedly realized just how formidable this alpha was.

Among the group, Ma Haoyu beca the most relaxed one.

The security guards were all stunned by the aura emanating from the two S-rank alphas.

Even when they walked out to the corridor outside the private room, no more security guards dared to co up and act.

Jiang Shuyi nervously clutched Ma Haoyu's clothes, her still-frightened gaze fixed on the tall figure leading the way in front.

She felt that if there were truly world-shaking heroes who walked on seven-colored clouds, it must be like that alpha in front.

Shen Han naturally didn't have the ability to walk on clouds.

She just felt that what Gu Junwan was working so hard to change shouldn't be casually trampled by these people.

Moreover, regardless of which world, children shouldn't be dragged into the vortex of adults' power struggles.

Thus, Shen Han escorted Manager Sun, surrounded by a group of black-suited security guards, grandly arriving at the second-floor lobby area.

Two beta bartenders, seeing this scene, widened their eyes.

They both crouched down, hiding behind the counter, quietly discussing while peeking at the explosive situation.

"What's going on? A gang fight?"

"Shh, don't talk nonsense! See that chestnut-haired alpha in the back? She's the daughter of Ning Xin Group, also a regular here, though she hasn't co much these past few months."

"Did Manager Sun offend a custor? Hey, why is there soone in a high school uniform?"

"Can you stop chattering? Just watch and you'll see."

Second floor lobby.

Unlike the noisy dance floor below, the open second floor was much quieter. Sound-absorbing materials blocked most of the noise, with only occasional bass from party cannons vibrating through.

Shen Han, holding Manager Sun, stood in the brightest and most conspicuous guest rest area.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

Hearing the almost gritted-teeth inquiry, Shen Han replied without a hint of jest: "Of course, to find soone to administer justice for this matter."

Saying this, she turned to Ning Xi: "Call the police."

Hearing this, Manager Sun imdiately laughed softly.

He thought this alpha must have had her brain fried by hot blood.

Call the police? Fine, let Captain Huang co 'severely' administer justice later!

Thinking of this, Manager Sun quickly gave a look to soone in the crowd.

A sharp-faced security guard imdiately understood, running to a quiet place to make a call.

Ning Xi actually didn't understand why Shen Han wanted to do this.

After all, those who could operate entertainnt venues of this scale in the Federation's main districts had to have connections in both legal and illegal circles.

The security team responsible for this area was probably very familiar with that manager.

Even if they ca, it would just be a matter of diation.

Though puzzled, she didn't question Shen Han's arrangent, directly taking out her phone to dial the police.

At the sa mont.

Instructor Liu, about to sit at the mahjong table, suddenly felt his phone buzzing non-stop.

He one-handedly arranged his tiles while unlocking to check the ssages.

After just a few glances, his entire face fell.

The guard team chat group he had created was suddenly exploding late at night!

After three ssages that had already been retracted, over a dozen alphas began passionately arguing in the group.

[Li Dachui, do you have any conscience? Hasn't Shen Han helped you plenty during training? Now she's surrounded, and you have so much to say when asked to help?]

[I didn't say I wouldn't go, I'm just afraid of violating regulations, aren't I?]

[What regulations? Which rule says public servants can only stand there and take a beating when sothing happens, not even allowed to fight back?]

[Oh co on, stop arguing. Those who want to go, let's et at the old locust tree outside the compound gate in 15 minutes. Those who don't want to go, stop whining!]

[Agreed with above, I just have one question, should we bring weapons?]

Instructor Liu quickly scrolled through all the chat records, then privately asked two team mbers before finally understanding the situation.

Shen Han and the others had caused so trouble at a nightclub, and Ning Xi was calling for help in a small group.

Unexpectedly, a groggy small group mber hadn't paid attention when replying and sent it to the big group instead.

Then a bunch of people started arguing about whether to help or not.

Instructor Liu was fuming, angrily typing a long scolding ssage, about to hit send when he suddenly thought of sothing and quickly deleted it all.

He found his contacts list and directly called Xu Zhao.

Xu Zhao was still in the office working overti with the empress. Upon hearing the news, her head started to ache.

"Don't hang up, Her Majesty is right beside , let

ask her."

"Alright, alright. Oh, this Shen Han, knowing full well her identity, yet still so impulsive and hot-headed, really..."

Seeing her assistant's slightly strange expression, Gu Junwan stopped her pen, curiously asking: "What's wrong? What matter requires my handling?"

After listening to Xu Zhao's explanation, Gu Junwan's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Pondering for a mont, she felt sothing wasn't quite right about this matter.

Shen Han definitely wasn't the type to cause trouble after a few drinks.

Moreover, even if a conflict occurred, with her abilities, she absolutely wouldn't need the prospective guard team mbers to help.

The abnormal situation must have so hidden twist.

"Give

the phone." Gu Junwan reached for the still-connected phone, speaking steadily, "Instructor Liu, handle the other prospective guard team mbers on your end, they don't need to go."

After hanging up, she instructed Xu Zhao: "Pull up the bar's surveillance."

While quickly searching for relevant personnel's phone numbers, Xu Zhao couldn't help reminding softly: "Your Majesty, it's said that Shen Han and the others started the conflict inside a private room, there are no caras inside the rooms."

Gu Junwan didn't respond.

She was hesitating whether to directly call Shen Han.

Due to the special nature of her identity, every contact number in her personal phone needed to go through the highest level of security encryption and loading.

As things stood, she and Shen Han couldn't text or call each other like normal people.

But she had long morized Shen Han's phone number.

And now, the secure landline in the office could be used.

Before she could decide on this question, Xu Zhao had already contacted the information officer, and through them, quickly connected the surveillance footage of Azure Bar where Shen Han was to the holographic screen.

The bar's security surveillance had fifty-eight points.

As Xu Zhao had just said, every cara covered public areas of coming and going.

However, what Xu Zhao hadn't expected was.

Shen Han and the others weren't inside any private room, but in the spacious hall of the floor.

Three high-definition caras exposed the young alpha's current situation vividly.

And at this mont, six uniford police officers were being respectfully led by security guards straight to the second-floor hall.

They weren't using the guest passage, but the area for bar staff to pass through.

The empress pointed, and Xu Zhao imdiately pulled up separate surveillance of the areas they passed through.

In the footage, a sharp-faced security guard spoke with a face full of smiles: "Captain Huang, it's really troubleso for you to co all this way!"

"Those three alphas, we don't know if they're sent by competitors to cause trouble, anyway the student is in their hands now. Captain Huang, you must intercept them!"

The one called Captain Huang was an alpha about thirty years old.

Strong and fit, with a gun at his waist, he looked quite imposing.

He couldn't be bothered to look much at the security guard leading the way, letting out a low "huh."

"I don't know what your boss is thinking, ssing with students. High risk, not even good taste. Better to get more mature peaches, so we brothers don't always have to clean up your sses."

Their conversation echoed clearly in the empress's office through electromagnetic energy.

A subtle light flashed through Gu Junwan's golden phoenix eyes.

She pondered for a few seconds, then spoke: "Connect

to the Compound's Ninth Supervisory Group!"
